Larik (Ларік)

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten

Larik. A little boy who survived war and is now just waiting for a miracle... Larik is only 5 months old. He was brought from the war - very small, defenseless, but he survived. Now instead of a carefree childhood, he cries all day in a cage. Larik is a wonderful, intelligent and incredibly good boy. He is vaccinated, uses the litter box regularly and loves to play. He wants to run, chase toys, play, fall asleep after playing in warmth... He wants to be a normal kitten who doesn't have to be afraid of anything. But his childhood is passing behind bars. Every day he waits for someone to stop by his cage and take him. Larik is only 5 months old - can his first memories of life be about a cage, loneliness and waiting? Please give this little boy a home. Let the war stay behind, and games, a warm bed, loving hands and a long happy life will be ahead. ❤️

🤎 Ларік. Маленький хлопчик, який пережив війну і тепер просто чекає на диво… Ларіку всього 5 місяців. Його привезли з війни — зовсім маленького, беззахисного, але він вижив. Та зараз замість безтурботного дитинства він цілодобово плаче в клітці. Ларік — чудовий, розумний і неймовірно хороший хлопчик. Він вакцинований, справно ходить на лоточок і обожнює гратися. Йому так хочеться бігати, ганятися за іграшками, пустувати, засинати після гри в теплі… Хочеться бути звичайним кошеням, якому не треба нічого боятися. Але його дитинство минає за ґратами. Щодня він чекає, що хтось зупиниться біля його клітки й забере саме його. Ларіку лише 5 місяців — невже його перші спогади про життя мають бути про клітку, самотність і очікування? Будь ласка, подаруйте цьому малюку дім. Нехай війна залишиться позаду, а попереду будуть ігри, тепла лежанка, люблячі руки та довге щасливе життя. ❤️

About Larik (Ларік)

What life with Larik (Ларік) looks like

Larik (Ларік) is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇺🇦Adopting from Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Larik (Ларік), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Larik (Ларік)?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Happy Paw Kyiv handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Larik (Ларік) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Larik (Ларік) if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Happy Paw Kyiv will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Larik (Ларік) already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Larik (Ларік) isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Happy Paw Kyiv early rather than rehoming privately; they know Larik (Ларік) and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (UK). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
